Opuntia pilifera | 100 SEEDS

Opuntia pilifera seeds grow into a striking cactus native to Mexico. This desert succulent is part of the well-known Opuntia species, often admired for its unique appearance and resilience. The Mexican cactus produces flat, paddle-shaped pads that develop a soft, woolly texture, distinguishing it from other prickly pears.
